Author: Iran International Newsroom


A secret underground drone base of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) has been uncovered by an Israeli security think tank.


The location in the southwest of Iran was revealed Monday by Alma center, a non-profit research organization which focuses on the security challenges on Israel's northern borders.


The UAV base is carved into the Zagros mountains near Shiraz, Fars province, according to a video released by Alma.


The location is about 10km from Shiraz airbase, which also houses the air force's SU-24 jets of the 72nd tactical fighter squadron. 


The base’s proximity to the strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf “threatens the entire Middle East at any given moment”, Alma warned.
